Tomorrow is it...

It's finally midnight and I am sitting here with my dad doing nothing. I to acknowledge this is the last full day of the old me. Tomorrow is my day for surgery. I have to take the MOM for my bowel prep and can only have clear liquids. I think I will be eating a lot of jello today! I am excited and calm but I can't guarantee I will be that way tomorrow. I have to be at the hospital at 6 am tomorrow which means I have to get up at 430...actually I can get up at 500 because I won't have the kids home.

I have to complete my final exam and a paper before 5 pm and that should keep me busy from thinking about eating period and if I am not working on those things (I always wait until the last minute) then I will try to sleep! I promised the kids I would take them to the movies tomorrow so hopefully the MOM will have done most of its damage by then. I am really looking forward to this journey. I am going to walk in that Surgical Check in in office like I am going to work...fearless.

Keep me in your prayers.

Trust me, I was and still get the urge to have panic attacks! When I went to the PREP class (day before surgery class), I felt a little more at ease. I am a big jokester so I just kept making jokes and kept everyone laughing which eased my nervousness. Now I will let you know tomorrow how much at ease was once I wake up!

  Good luck to you and your family during this big change, who would have thought it would be scary to become skinny?!!  I have lost only 31 lbs but it's already a whole new world.  Prayers are with you both!

I wish you all the luck in the world with your surgery!  I am having mine in a week!  You and I are at the same weight!  Maybe we could be pen pals throughout this journey.  If you are interested, you can email me at [email protected]

Hugs and lots of prayers!
